France, 1942. A bookseller named Bachelin has invited some
friends to celebrate his wife Sophie’s birthday. As he prepares
for the dinner party, he is surprised to find one of his Jewish
neighbours hiding in his cellar, but he decides to keep this from his
guests. The latter include the Pétain-supporting Dr
Marcillac, the disillusioned philosophy professor Claude Salmon and
Françoise, who hates Nazis as her husband is a prisoner of the
Germans. Jean-Louis is blind because of an injury sustained in
the war and Mangicol is Sophie’s uncle, an unashamed Nazi
collaborator. Suddenly, two shots are fired in the street and two
German soldiers are killed. A few minutes later, S.S. Kaubach
enters Bachelin’s apartment with the message that unless the killer is
handed over to him, two hostages will be taken and shot...
